fast-jack the best in SR? who said he was? how long
ago was this? were in hte 57' timeline, we've experimented with
MAtrix-births
here, we've had little 7-8 year old kids completely surpassing seasoned
deckers of older ages and experience levels, (we roleplayed it this way,
because of the current plot running) so my guess is that changin' your
T/D
isn't a great secret, but it's just tedious and a little dificult to do.
you knoe just like the software tools you can find in many of the
current bbs in our time line, but if you don't know how to utilize the
tool and where to use it at, its no good to ya... I think that it
should be very difficult to change the stamps but not Impossible. I
suggested the idea that the plotd group would decide if a character was
sufficiently good enough to change them.
